When Xia Yu woke up, it was already the night three days later.
When he opened his eyes, Xia Yu saw Princess Shen Yuyao, sleeping beside his bed.
She must be very sleepy.
Xia Yu carefully looked at Shen Yuyao who was sleeping beside the bed. Her long black hair was casually scattered, and her pretty face looked even smaller.
Shen Yuyao's face was still a little pale, and under her tightly closed eyelids, her eyeballs were constantly moving.
She must be dreaming.
I don’t know what kind of dream she had, but her eyebrows, as curved as distant eyebrows, were tightly furrowed together, and the lines of her entire body from head to toe seemed very tense.
Even her most beautiful lips were a little pale, not as rosy as her usual cherry red.
Only the delicate and tender skin, reflecting the moonlight outside the window, emits a light as white as jade.
Xia Yu was full of tenderness. He gently raised his right hand and involuntarily began to stroke Shen Yuyao's long black hair that was spread out on the side of the bed.
The fine and dense hair at this moment was just like the love growing wildly in his heart.
Alas, Xia Yu sighed softly.
Shen Yuyao, who was sleeping soundly, had no idea that even though she was lying on the edge of the bed, her hands seemed to be placed in an inappropriate place.
Not knowing what he was thinking about, Xia Yu's face turned slightly red, and he was distracted for a moment.
“Cough…cough cough…”
This scene happened to be seen by Zi Su who came in through the curtain.
Zi Su smiled. She didn't want to ruin this beauty, but the medicine in her hand was what Shen Yuyao had repeatedly warned her about. It was very important and must not get cold.
When Xia Yu heard Zi Su cough lightly, he hurriedly signaled Zi Su not to disturb Shen Yuyao's dream. Zi Su would be proud, so she tiptoed to Xia Yu's bedside and handed the bowl of medicine in her hand to Xia Yu. She pointed at Shen Yuyao and made a gesture of picking up the bowl to drink the medicine.
He understood that Zi Su wanted him to take the medicine quickly. This medicine was prepared by Shen Yuyao herself and she wanted him to take it while it was hot.
Xia Yu propped himself up and took the bowl of medicine from Zi Su. Just as he was about to drink it, he saw Shen Yuyao seemed to stir. He was afraid that if he moved any more, Shen Yuyao would wake up, so he could only half lean against the headboard and drink the unpleasant and extremely bitter medicine in small sips.
He couldn't help but frown. He had drunk medicine countless times before, but he just drank it in one gulp and didn't feel it was bitter.
Now I can only taste it in small bites, and then I realize that it is really as bitter as the one I tasted at my grandma's house!
Zi Su, who was serving by the bed, couldn't help but curl up the corners of her lips when she saw Xia Yu grinning.
I thought to myself, it turns out that Prince Ning is also afraid of hardship.
With a "bang", Shen Yuyao slapped the bed and woke up suddenly.
"Ah!" Xia Yu groaned in extreme pain.
Shen Yuyao then opened her still somewhat confused eyes and saw Xia Yu's painful expression. She was a little confused at first, and then she looked at the place where her palm had been slapped, and her ears turned red instantly.
She slowly sat up straight, not daring to look directly at Xia Yu, and whispered, "I didn't mean to..."
Xia Yu: “…”
Shen Yuyao secretly glanced at his expression and explained, "I didn't hit you there on purpose. Does it hurt?"
Asking even though you already know the answer?
"Or, if you sleep curled up next time, you won't do that..." Shen Yuyao said again.
For the first time, Xia Yu was so embarrassed that he was speechless.
He struggled to prop himself up, sat up straight, and quickly pretended to drink medicine to hide the embarrassment on his face.
The medicine in the bowl was just the right temperature, and Xia Yu drank it all in one gulp.
After drinking the medicine, Xia Yu wanted to try to stand up again. He exerted force suddenly, but felt a tearing pain in his chest.
Xia Yu then looked down at his chest. Red blood beads were seeping out of the white gauze that had been wrapped around it.
"hiss..."
"You can't move too much, otherwise the wound will be torn again." Shen Yuyao was completely awake. She slightly tied up her long hair and continued to explain to Xia Yu: "The prince was wounded by the sword that day. Although the sword did not pierce the heart, he fell into a coma due to the poison on the sword."
Xia Yu smiled bitterly and nodded slightly.
"I used acupuncture needles and medicine to control the spread of the poison, but to prevent any remaining poison from clearing up, Your Highness... I took it upon myself to remove some of the poisoned, blackened flesh for Your Highness."
Shen Yuyao said it easily, but Xia Yu was shocked when he heard it.
Ordinary people would be in danger of death if they were just hit by a sword.
Not only was he stabbed in the left chest, but it was also stabbed by a poisonous sword. If it weren't for Shen Yuyao's superb medical skills, Xia Yu would have been on the Naihe Bridge by now.
"Thank you for your hard work." Xia Yu said softly, with unspeakable concern flashing in his eyes.
Shen Yuyao's heart was shaken, and she was afraid to look directly into Xia Yu's eyes.
She was busy communicating with Xia Yu from a doctor's perspective.
"Your Highness, you can try breathing a little now. First, it can relieve the pain, and second, it can test whether your breath is damaged."
As a doctor, Shen Yuyao is truly attentive to the patients she treats.
Seeing Shen Yuyao avoiding his gaze, Xia Yu secretly laughed in his heart, "The princess's medical skills are superb. She can even scrape bones to cure poison. I really admire her!"
He was quite obedient and sat cross-legged, turned his palms over, and began to practice breathing exercises.
It didn't matter that he breathed in and out, it really made Xia Yu ecstatic.
Not only was his internal energy completely unaffected, but he also discovered that his skills had improved a lot more than before while breathing in and out.
After a while, some white smoke slowly emerged from Xia Yu's head, and fine beads of sweat dripped down his forehead.
Shen Yuyao was standing beside him, carefully observing his breath, with one hand on Xia Yu's wrist.
“Neither floating nor sinking, neither fast nor slow, gentle and powerful, with an even rhythm.”
Shen Yuyao nodded with satisfaction, finally living up to Xia Xiaoxian's blood.
"Oh..."
After a while, Xia Yu also let out a long breath.
"Yuyao, what medicine did you use on me? Why am I much better than before?" Xia Yu asked repeatedly, unable to suppress his excitement.
Shen Yuyao smiled faintly and said, "Your Highness, you only need to take the medicine prepared by me on time every day. In four days at most, you will be back to normal, and your skills will be more than doubled."
But she thought in her heart, you should thank your dear daughter. If it weren't for the little fairy treasure, your life would be in danger, let alone improving your skills.
Thinking of Xia Xiaoxian, Shen Yuyao added: "When the prince gets better, I will bring the little princess to see you."
Because Xia Yu was seriously injured in the assassination, Xia Xiaoxian did not hesitate to use up her immortal spirit to save her father. She even cut off half a bowl of blood and injected it into the medicine for Xia Yu.
At this time, the little fairy was also in the bedroom, breathing in and out his luck.
The originally planned birthday party for Xia Xiaoxian had to be cancelled.
